Alex: hi, Bob, I am so glad that you came.


Bob: of course I'd come. I couldn't think of a better chance to see all my old friends.


A: yeah. It's hard to believe that it's been ten years since graduation. It feels just yesterday we collected our diplomas 1.


B: how time flies. But hey, how are things going with you?


A: oh, where to start? There have been ups and downs. I'm still trying to find my place in this world. It's only recently that I've been ablt to start settling 2 down. How about you? You still with Jenny?


B: yeah, Jenny and I got married right after graduation. It was tough the first years trying to make ends meet. I was supporting us both while she continued her studies. But now things are getting better. I work as senior 3 manager in a trading company and she's working at a law firm. It's all started to come together and we're finally able to make a life for ourselves. Even starting to think about kids!


A: oh, that sounds wonderful. I have always known 4 you two would make it. I hope I can keep in better contact with you huys. I don't want us to drift 5 apart again.


B: definitely 6! Actually, we just moved into a new place. There's a house-warming party this Saturday, if you are free? I know Jenny would love to see you again and it should be a good party.


A: sounds great! I'll be there.

嘿,鲍勃,我很高兴你能来.

当然要来啦.我觉得没有比这更好的机会了,可以见到所有的老朋友.

是啊.真难以相信,转眼间我们已经毕业十年了,感觉发学位证就在昨天一样.

时光如梭啊.你过得怎么样?

从哪里说起呢? 生活有起有伏,我现在还是试着去找自己的位置,最近才开始逐渐安定下来.你呢?还和詹妮在一起吗?

当然啦,詹妮和我一毕业就结婚了.刚结婚那几年很苦,维持生计都很困难.我要养活两个人,因为詹妮要继续她的学业.但是现在好多了,我在一家贸易公司做高级经理,她也在一家律师事务所有了工作.现在一切都开始好转,我们终于有像样的生活了,我们俩现在都考虑要孩子了!

那太棒了.我就知道你们俩个肯定会过的很好.我希望能和你们更好地保持联系,不想再变得疏远.

那是一定的啊!我们刚搬家,这周六打算办个聚会,庆祝乔迁之喜,到时候你有时间吗?詹妮看到你来,一定会很高兴的,聚会也会很有意思的.

听起来不错,我会去的.
